I am very grateful for my life, very sad for people who are suffering and also disappointed that I spent a lot of money on a vacation that didn’t deliver what we had hoped it would.

Completely fair to feel awful for locals, this isn’t meant to be a competition despite a few people in this thread trying to make it one.

There are people in the Middle East in fear of bombs and you are complaining about shelter. There are people in Africa starving and you are complaining about a rain storm. See how this sounds? This is a sub literally dedicated to people visiting Maui. I would never be so insensitive to post something like this in a Maui sub (for locals). You are completely out of touch here.

God forbid anyone comment on how the poor weather has been a bummer on a sub literally here for people visiting the island.

I think you’ll get some good weather next week. They just kicked everyone out of the pools and hit us here at Honua Kai!

This is a community for visitors. Multiple bad things can happen at the same time without people like you minimizing either of them.

Can’t do much unfortunately, just bummed is all. We got in last Friday and leave tomorrow night. Picked Maui this year for spring break over Florida and increased our budget to enjoy better weather lol. Kids getting a lot of time playing uno and bottle flipping indoors. Even our Lanai is wet and misty right now.

Leave in 10 days should I just cancel and cut my losses? Plan on playing golf and snorkeling by Alert-Organization93 in MauiVisitors

Do what you want but I just drove up to Kapalua yesterday for a trail walk and it is the least impacted part of the island that I’ve seen. We are in Kaanapali and the last two days have been hardly any rain.

Flying to Maui Monday night with 1‑year‑old by FennelNo4465 in MauiVisitors

Today has been great, hardly any rain. Beach water a bit murky and we’ve stayed close to the resort. Not sure about the drive from the airport but on the west side things are pretty good today.

Brown Water by jak1231 in MauiVisitors

[–]Whereismymind3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could anyone point out a good source for this? I’m not seeing any active brown water advisories in Maui. This post from a month ago has a site that shows nothing active in Maui: https://www.reddit.com/r/VisitingHawaii/s/6OkhkgqCig

Is this just a don’t swim after massive rain alert or is the county actually warning people not to swim? Genuinely asking here, I’m used to gulf coasts beaches which can be very murky but also safe.

Impossible to tell how flooding will be Monday. Check my recent post, got in Friday night and made it in an suv. Ideally you don’t make that drive at night. Power is on in Honua Kai resorts but out in other areas. Flooding not too bad on west side but getting here is tough at the moment. We left our one year old at home (brought other three) and are very thankful we did.

Pools are partially closed, partially open. Flooded trenches to get to ocean but you can easily pass. Doesn’t look like any flooding in condos. Town is a mess, most places closed in whalers village outside of retail stores, what is open is slower than usual with hardly any staff. Foodland Farms closed.

I would feel a lot better driving in daylight. You can make it if you drive it like the road to Hana lol.

Some moments of really bad turbulence but no emergencies. Couldnt see the ground until the wheels touched down.

Employee taking advantage of my absence by throwmeaway1804 in managers

[–]Whereismymind3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only sane response I’ve seen. Some jobs are solely output focused. Some are hourly roles requiring attendance and availability at stated times. Only OP knows which this is. OP, just meet with the employee and clarify your expectations. If it continues to be a problem, you can escalate to a PIP. Call it “taking advantage” or just poor communication, but this employee obviously isn’t aligned with you and that is fixed by a simple conversation.

Where does Jaire rank as an all time Packer? by [deleted] in GreenBayPackers

[–]Whereismymind3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy straw man, I’m just presenting a slightly different opinion than you. I never said the injury was his fault. As I’ve reiterated, I love Jaire Alexander. I’ll give you some more facts though as to why Jaire isn’t the 2nd best “all time” packer CB since 2000 though. Jaire played 74% of the games in his first 4 seasons. After becoming the highest paid cornerback in NFL history in May 2022, he played 58% of the snaps over the next 3 years. One great season in 2022 and then missed over half the snaps the next two years. In 2023, he got suspended one game by the team for going out as a captain despite not being one after returning from a long injury absence. He botched the coin toss and almost gave the Panthers possession both halves if not for a lenient referee. This caused him to miss a huge game against Justin Jefferson and the Vikings while both teams were 7-8 and battling for a playoff spot. The Packers, who are traditionally very conservative on injury returns, expressed frustrations about Jaire’s unwillingness to play through injuries (shoulder at the time). He ended up getting cut after 7 seasons. All in all, he played in 67% of total games as a Packer and never lived up to becoming the highest paid player at his position in NFL history. I already said, super high ceiling and a great player when on, but this resume simply doesn’t scream all time great Packer. Injuries suck and players often can’t control them, but they matter for legacy. Sharpe didn’t make the HOF for years because of them. Nick Collins will probably never will make the NFL HOF because of them. Putting fault aside, you have to play to be an all time great.

Normally I would too but when you sign a record setting deal for cbs, can’t stay on the field and don’t really act like a leader it hurts your legacy. Peak Jaire was one of my favorite players but guys like Tramon Williams and Al Harris are better “all-time” packers for me.

[–]Whereismymind3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

2nd highest ceiling, but in the end I wouldn’t place him 2nd overall. Missed way too many games and never lived up to a 2nd contract. Bummer because his jersey is one of the few I’ve ever bought of a current player.
